5 months ago | Trevor Richardson

was played on a fantastic day for quick rugby last Sunday for the 'John Donnelly' Memorial Cup which is the 5th time since the rebirth from its heyday in the late 70's.
The RFU's new 24/7's format is now a local event with a pathway that leads to the North regional Finals at West Park Leeds on Saturday 30th June and then to Bath Rugby's iconic Rec ground on Saturday 21st July.
On the day a 'Round Robin' style festival was played between 2 Wigton squads, Kendal and Aspatria Hornets with Wigton 'A' remaining unbeaten which were outstandingly refereed by Martin Maughan and 7's expert Sam O'Neil from Northumberland.
